This is correct but it's not woeful, us selling our good players instead of keeping them is woeful. Would rather be ran properly, but with or without money, we aren't.

They are still football clubs, but things are a lot different these days. Would you have turned down Roman Abramovich if he had come to Boro by the way?

I don't have any say if he comes or goes. The money would be nice so I personally would not want him at the club. The prices would go up for everything, nothing is better than having a local young chairman who is running the club.

So you wouldn't want him at the club then personally?

Nope. Seems pointless just getting loads of money that way, its cheating. Rather be proud of my club and win things the right way.

So you would rather not be successful without money than be successful with money then?

I'd hate to see my club go down the Chelsea/Man City route. So would many others.

So you're happy to never win the Premier League or anything big then because that's what you're basically saying?

I don't think I'd want Spurs to be winning the Premier League every year, it takes the buzz away from actually winning it. Same with the Carling Cup last year and getting into the UEFA 2 years previous.

I want my club ran properly, I enjoy the ups and downs instead of the constant ups.

I honestly find that difficult to believe, and even more difficult to understand. To be honest I find it bizarre. Surely every fan would love their team to win things every year, and if that happened because of having more money than anyone else who cares?

Can we stop going in circles? I care, I want my club ran properly rather than being in massive debt with a man who could leave at anytime and fuck us over and that'd be that.

The odd success other than constant success which has been bought overnight does not appeal to me in the slightest, it's not success I follow Tottenham for.

I love Tottenham no matter what happens, but I don't want an owner like Abramovich.

Totally agree with you. Darren how come your saying this yet you support Mossley of all teams. Why not support Chelsea if you want the ups only?

I just find it totally amazing that you wouldn't want Roman Abramovich at your club for one thing. I mean how many fans in the whole world would say that, about 1% if that I think. What I am saying is for me and the vast majority of fans (in my opinion anyway) success is important. If this success arrives who cares how it comes?

We obviously do, ask something different because answering the same question is boring.

Not even chelsea always have ups
